Befriending Hyperobjects is an ongoing decentralized eco-performance interfacing art and blockchain technology to fund environmental projects. Hyperobjects are entities we cannot grasp in their entirety,
such as water, cats, or styrofoam. They appear to us as an abstraction due to their scale, ethereal nature, or non-linear relationship with time. In this project, artists “befriend” hyperobjects, similar to how you can befriend or follow someone on Facebook or Twitter.

The initial exhibition features 17 artists from 5 continents and is fully biodegradable with exception of the technology needed for display. Instead of solitary human art practice, this project portraits the encounter and collaboration of human and non-human entities.
